Counselling and Supervision

I am an experienced counsellor and clinical supervisor offering supervision at a cost of £40 per hour session. Counselling is charged at £40 per session with an initial assessment session charged at £15. You can contact me on 07752 009769 to book a start time or for more information. I have some evening appointments available.



About me

Welcome to my website which gives you an outline of me and the approach I use to counsel and supervise. I have also included in the links page the charities I have worked for, as well as some sites that could be of interest. Please take a look.

I am an Accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a UKRCP Registered Independent Counsellor/Psychotherapist and I hold an Advanced Diploma in Humanistic Counselling from West Kent College and a Diploma in Supervision from Wealden College.

For some years I counselled staff and residents at The Chaseley Trust in Eastbourne, a residential and day care centre for those with severe physical disabilities. I was a counsellor at Options Counselling Project, a division of NHS primary care and at Mankind UK, a Charity working with survivors of sexual abuse. Recently, I counselled at the Brighton and Hove Federation for Disabled People. Previously, I have supervised Rethink's senior operations worker for their Survivors of Suicide project. I am also a guest tutor at West Kent College.

Creative Counselling is my private practice offering one-to-one counselling and supervision in Brighton. I operate within an ethical framework providing counselling in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment. I offer a warm and friendly approach.

During my time working as a counsellor, I have worked with clients from all walks of life with a variety of presenting issues. I have achieved consistently positive results when working with clients, including those who have experienced stress, anxiety and depression, as well as those who are struggling to come to term with terminal illness, disability, or feelings around surviving sexual abuse (male & female). I have successfully worked with clients who have food, eating and body-image issues as well as those who self-harm, are having difficulties in relationships and face life dilemmas or bereavement.
